King Dravya Shah had begun expanding the Kingdom of Gorkha considerably. But after his death, his son Chhatra Shah, had only a year on the throne. He had passed away without an heir to the title and therefore his brother, King Ram Sham became King in the year 1606. Ram Sham would rule for twenty-six years and during his reign, he would become known as the King of reform, justice and righteousness. Not only did be gain popularity as King, but also gained land to expand the kingdom. Of his descendents, Prithvi Narayan Shan would make a noteworthy impact on the history of Nepal.

King Prithi Narayan Shah the Great went about his royal duties to unify Nepal with great enthusiasm and determination. He conquered Nuwakot in the year 1744 and Makawanpur soon followed in the year 1763. Kathmandu was not as easy to overrun, but by the year 1768 he has accomplished his task. He then secured Patan and Bhaktapur in the following months. Unifying Kathandu, Patan, Chaudandi, Makawanpur, Bijayapur and Bhaktapur under the Kingdom of Gorkha was his most significant achievement as King. He would also leave behind a legacy of being a warrior-king who was practical and did not use unnecessary force. The regions conquered by him were happier under his rule.
